Editor’s Note: At the Annual Symposium in June, the Advisory Board noted that it would be useful for junior officers to have a bibliography from which to learn about the non-technical lure and lore ofsubmarining. For an initial edition of such a reading list, Dick Boyle has extracted from the extensive bibliographies which he is using in his ongoing work on a submarine history. The following includes only books, not periodical articles, and only those done in English by U.S. publishers. That leaves plenty of room for expansion to those other categories, as well as additions to Dick’s initial list.
We hope to make this a continuing project for THE SUBMA-RINE REVIEW, therefore we ask that aU readers who have favorite books or articles about submarines and/or the people who build them, man them or write about them, to send in your entries and we’ll add them to our bibliography.
Part II of this bibliography will list those books which have been reviewed in THE SUBMARINE REVIEW.
